Ok I know I have not posted in a while but I have been busy and life interrupts my blogging sometimes.
I wrote another article for http://handmadeinpa.com which will be out Wed. or Thurs. I show a dress I am making from upholstery fabric.
I had some custom orders to get out and I sold my vintage dress so things are really picking up again! I have three more custom orders to do and a bag for my friends daughters wedding in June, plus I am making some kids clothes to sell down in the New Hope store.
I recently acquired a dozen vintage aprons that are so cute! Some I will use in other projects, others are just too cute to rip apart. I will post about what I make with them and put up some pics also so you all can get some ideas.
It is slowly warming here in PA and I bought the seeds for my garden yesterday. We are expanding ours this year and I am trying to grow everything we eat as a family. I wish I lived on a farm and could have my own chickens and cows but that is not allowed here in my development.
Not much else is going on so I will keep it short.

About Me
B Stauff Designs was created out of a passion for sewing and a love of vintage fashion, textiles and jewelry. Inspired by the creations of the 40's and 50's I began to collect vintage patterns and textiles and began reproducing them. I then started using the fabrics and jewelry in my handbag designs so they could be enjoyed in a more current way.
Recycling and using textiles from the past is not only a way to help the environment, but it makes the piece more interesting and gives it a story. I love feeling a vintage fabric and wondering whose hands held it before mine.
Through my work, I hope to inspire others to take a look at what is lying around and not be so quick to throw something away. I want to show others how old things can be used in a new and unique way without looking dated, and hopefully put a smile on their face when they carry one of my bags or wear one of my creations.
B Stauff Designs is sold through Etsy as well as down in New Hope PA. I welcome wholesale, custom orders and any questions at barbara@bstauffdesigns.com
